How to create a text file and send the text file via email?

In APEX,

I want to write a few variables to a text file and send the text file via email,

 

I don't want to save the text file as a document,

I have no use for it, and I don't want to accumulate text files on Salesforce,

 

Does anyone know how to do this?

Or can lead me to a thread that does something similar,

 

Thanks

You can use Blob.valueOf(String) to encode the text into an attachment directly, which can be attached to the email. Take a look at the SingleEmailAttachment methods in the documentation.
